Soil samples collected shall be <br />representative of native soils beneath the tank's invert (tank's bottom) at a collection depth not to exceed 2 - 4 feet. If <br />contamination is documented during closure, an Unauthorized Release Notification must be completed and submitted within <br />five (5) working days pursuant to California Health & Safety Code, Section 25295.
